It hardly seems proper — or possible — that an entire year has passed since Ms. B. and I stood on the balcony of our apartment overlooking the Cannaregio Canal in Venice saying silly things like “I do” in front of friends Terry and Beth. While our “legal” anniversary is in June, the “real” ceremony, as far as we’re concerned, took place on October 19, 2021, on that balcony. Terry was specially ordained for the task, and he truly made our experience personalized and unique to us.
Last night, we celebrated our first “real” anniversary with Terry and Beth at
Kau, a relatively newish restaurant here in Greensboro at
Revolution Mill. We were quite taken with the place and the experience.
How delightful to find that bottles of wine are half-price on Wednesdays (and
they had Jeff Runquist 1448, which is one of our favorite red blends).
The “Hot House” burger I had was wonderful. Brugger went for Buffalo chicken
mac & cheese, which made her almost as happy as saying “I do.”
We also opened a couple of bottles we’d brought back from Europe — one from
France (a red blend from
Chasson Vignoble) and one from Italy (an Amarone from
Coali). So, our anniversary celebration might not have been as exciting and
wonderful as a trip to Venice, but it certainly hit the notes that needed
hitting.
Ms. B. and I hope to celebrate a good many more of these milestones, so
beware!

Kau’s “Hot House” burger — bacon, pepper jack cheese, jalapenos, spicy
ketchup. Hardly a nuclear threat, but quite delicious. |
